170 days and nights after losing a cat

On Sunday morning, the city was still sleeping and the sun rose early as usual. She was half asleep when she heard the familiar sound of footsteps outside her door and a call she had missed for a long time: ..... Meow .....

Dear pooper scooper, have you ever experienced the loss of a pet.

If you want to describe that feeling, even if you use "thinking about it day and night", "tossing and turning", "sleepless nights", "unable to eat ", and "withered" is not exaggerated.

Once a foreign agency specifically lost 1210 cats to do data tracking and return visits, only 602 of the living back, and the rest of the end can be imagined.

For many pooper scoopers, pets have long been family. The search for pets is also a search for lost emotions and life. Today, we are going to tell 2 true stories of pet hunting, hoping that we can heal and grow through the separation in the stories.

Han is one of our pet doctors. Her fur baby, Bai, was a stray dog she picked up on our campus in January 2021.

Han recalls when she first met Bai, she was grey and her hair was curled. Because of the winter stray and sickness have been coughing, a soft heart, and brought back to the company for treatment. Originally prepared to give friends after the disease, but their feelings were raised, also left.

Like all enthusiastic and active bears, Bai is also innocent and lively. Even if it is the first time you see him, you will be infected by his familiarity.

It is because of such a naturally soft and cute character that Bai has not only become the company's group pet but also logically becomes a family member that Han can hardly part with.

On March 8, 2022, Xiao Bai suddenly ran away from the company and got lost in the park after Jiro (the pet's corgi). Realizing that Xiao Bai was lost, Han immediately contacted the property to search through the surveillance and double-checked with the gatekeeper, but the result was still nothing.

Han printed hundreds of copies of a dog search notice and posted it in a 2 km area around the park, hoping it would be picked up and sent back. At first, there were clues from people, and in the middle, there were calls from park staff saying they had found the dog and wanted to claim it, but it was not Bai.

On the afternoon of June 13, an unfamiliar friend added a request to break the peace after Xiaobai was lost for 97 days.

This person, who claimed to know where the dog was, sent a photo of the dog, and HAN immediately recognized the pink leash that was on Xiaobai when he was lost.

No one expected the missing Bai to come back. Bai, who had been separated from Han for 3 months, was not doing well. The first week after returning home is not good, weight from 11 kg before the loss, now only 9 kg 2 two. But after Han's careful care, Bai is now back to his old vigor.

1. "All the things in the world seem to be more important than Mei Mei, but Mei Mei is the first important to me ......

On July 22nd, Dr. Pet held an offline clinic at Guanggu Tiandi, and we met the main character of the story, Tei Yue.

She handed us a "special fan" with a cat search notice on it, and then we contacted her through the phone number on the fan, and she told us the story of her six-month cat search.

Like Bai, Burnt Plum was initially just a stray cat squatting downstairs on the emperor's moon. Intermittently fed for 2 months, the little guy because of a large ulcerated neck injury, Tei Yue sent it to the hospital for half a month, was ready to be cured and released back, but the doctor said its character is not very suitable for going out to wander, so Mei Mei became the first cat raised by Tei Yue.

2. This girl who set her avatar as Mei Mei, her personality signature reads, My kitty is the cutest in the world.

"He knows his stuff, he's the best kitty I've ever seen." The pride that Tei Yue feels when she talks about Mei Mei.

Brought home in September 2018 and having spent nearly three years with Meme in the past, Tei Yue can remember all the little details of her time with Meme:

"The Mui Mui that came home at the beginning was always timid, and even when you did something it didn't like, it always forced itself to cater to you.

When he was particularly angry, he would hide and pluck his fur and set it in a row in front of the window.

Never at home to rummage through things, their toys will be stored well, encounter the home fell individually wrapped small twist small snacks, it will carry to share with me. When I do not come home, it has been waiting for me, and the meal does not eat. With Meme gone, there's no one to give me gifts every day anymore!"

"Besides the pain, I could feel in my feet, my normal life seemed to suddenly be suspended on February 7"

After Meimei was lost, Tei Yue reflected countless times on the details of the time, "it felt like every step was done wrong."

February 7, 2022, the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, home from the outside of the emperor moon holding Mei Mei just walked into the building, suddenly the firecrackers next door, originally lying quietly in the arms of Mei Mei, were directly frightened by the stress of popping out of the arms, panic, by the way, to break free of the traction rope, like a lightning bolt from the emperor moon's life disappeared.

Because the face shape like heavy oil sizzling

"I felt that my soul had been taken away from me, and I couldn't sleep all night long. "However, desperation is useless, Tei Yue immediately mobilized all available forces around to find Mei Mei, the process is worth learning.

First, after determining the exact time and address of the incident, the first time to check the surveillance of the community, as clear as possible to understand the final destination of the cat; then through various network channels will be widely spread the lost information, here the need to mobilize the help of many friends;

Offline, she repeatedly searched around the lost location, because experience has shown that lost animals are likely to wander in the same place when they are lost, and even return to the same place a few days later.

She has tried "cat beard wish", "scissor method", tried to find a pet detective, insisted on sending a small red book every day, voted for the abundance of nest advertising, flyers, and fans, and sometimes received clues at 1:00 in the middle of the night, and found 3:00 at night. As long as there is any possibility, she spared no effort.

Next to the white cat search notice witnessed the passage of time

"It's raining again. I wonder if my Mei Mei will get wet"

During the six months of searching for Mei Mei, Tei Yue's cat search radius gradually expanded from her neighborhood to the surrounding community, to McDonald's, the fire department, the police station, the veterinary hospital, and every possible way to find Mei Mei, Tei Yue has tried.

Originally did not love to move her, daily WeChat steps forty to fifty thousand steps, walking to the Achilles tendon inflammation can only be bed rest.

"As long as 1 day does not go out to find Mei Mei, my heart will feel guilty and sad to sleep"

Once I dreamed that Mei Mei was waiting for me on the rooftop of Building 30, and I woke up the next day and searched all the nearby Building 30 against the map.

After the initial breakdown and wretchedness, with the comfort of family and friends, Tei Yue now slowly regains her spirits.

And in the process of finding the cat, the kindness of ordinary people also gave Tei Yue great comfort. They have a pet group, and many of their friends will give her tips. To Tei Yue's surprise, although she published her phone number, no one has ever called her to harass her.

Because of the rain, so also want to hold an umbrella for others.

We learned that Tei Yue photographed every cat that might have been lost and misplaced during the cat search. At first, she did this just thinking that if others provided clues, she could send pictures to confirm in advance so that she wouldn't have to make a trip for anything. Later, she found that this could help others find and adopt cats and kittens.

In the past six months, she has found new homes for several stray cats and also found lost cats for their owners. Each time she is happy for these cats and kittens, but immersed in the joy of others she also asks, where is my Meme?

"I always felt that it was still alive."

During her cat search, Tei Yue had seen too many tragedies of stray cats, an orange cat fell from a height and some stray cats passed away due to accidents. Fate had given her very discouraging hints, but Tei Yue still held on to her confidence.

" Mei Mei used to be a stray cat when it weighed ten pounds. Friends say that it is a "stone cat", not to be held or kissed, it can take care of itself so well, so I firmly believe that it must still be alive."

She was also advised to keep another one, and she said that no one could replace Mei Mei. Later in the search for a cat and picked up a kitten Chacha, Tei Yue carefully put away the dishes Mei Mei used are washed them clean, she was afraid that Mei Mei would be angry when she returned.

Today's Wuhan has a continuous high-temperature warning, coupled with the epidemic being strictly controlled. Mizuki's injured foot can only walk 10,000 steps a day, but she still insists on going out to fans every day.

The other day she told us with a smile, you do not know, we have a parent in the group, his cat lost almost a year and a half, yesterday he found a 10-minute drive near home.

"Meme used to love to play hide-and-seek with me, and if I couldn't find it, it would hum with special glee, and Meme must be waiting for me to find it, and my sister will find it."

Nowadays, after she sends out the fan every day, she still goes out at night with a full bag of cat food to feed the stray cats, and doesn't forget to tell each cat: If you see my Mui Mui, please tell it that my sister has been waiting for it to come home.

Because of belief, there is hope. This hope will turn into a light that will guide Mei Mei home. We also wish that Mei Mei will not fail to live up to her sister's strong love and faith and will return home soon.
